Hey there,
I'm Tanya!

Career & Workplace Strategist | Author | Speaker

I help people make sense of work.

Difficult managers, workplace dynamics, career decisions and unspoken realities make navigating our careers more complicated than it should be.

For more than 20 years, I’ve worked across corporate and nonprofit environments, experiencing many of the same challenges that I now write and speak about. As a coach, I’ve helped hundreds of professionals navigate career transitions, challenges and professional growth.

Today, my work explores careers, workplace dynamics and leadership, especially the things we experience at work but don’t always know how to name or navigate.

I’m also the author of What Your Team Won’t Tell You: The 7 Management Fails to Avoid, a book about the management behaviors that employees experience, but don’t feel safe to talk about.

When I’m trying not to think about work, you’ll find me writing, enjoying my sweet home, Chicago, listening to 90s R&B and spending time with my family.

What employees don’t tell their managers —but feel every day.

A leadership guide that reveals the hidden management behaviors that quietly damage morale, productivity, and retention. This book exposes seven common leadership failures and provides practical strategies to transform them into effective, people-centered leadership. It helps managers build trust, improve engagement, and create stronger teams.

Who This Book Is For

  • Managers who want to better understand their teams.
  • Aspiring leaders preparing for management.
  • Employees navigating workplace dynamics.
